Questions about wiring the adapter v5 to the ebus

[blastrock]

Hi there,

I am planning on buying an adapter v5 but I am unsure about whether it will work.

First of all, I don't know if this is common, but my thermostat is connected to my heater with only 2 wires, which carry both power and ebus. So there is 24V power on these wires. Will the adapter v5 work with that, or will it fry?

And second, I plan to use the adapter in Wi-Fi. The page says that it needs to be powered externally, with USB or with the pins. Can't it take power from the ebus wires directly?

Thanks for your input,
Philippe

It could be connected to same wire as youre termostat parallel to it, but you need to connect your eBus externaly. It could not.take power from that wires.

Ok thanks for the answer! I'll find a way to power it externally then.
